I spent over $3,000 yesterday. I bought a Faberge egg.

Just kidding. Okay, but seriously, I paid for my housing for this summer! I found out a week or so ago that I’d gotten an internship at Ogilvy & Mather (I’m so excited!), which is the advertising agency that I hope to work for someday. It’s the 10th largest agency worldwide (5th in the U.S.) with clients such as Dove, BP, IBM, Kodak, and so forth. I won’t know which account I’m working on until I get there, but I would love (love) to work on the Dove or Kodak accounts.

Anyway, Ogily is located on 8th Avenue in mid-town Manhattan (309 W. 49th Street, New York, NY 10019), so I booked a place that was just a couple streets down (intersection of 3rd Ave. and 55th Street). It’s going to be back to college, dorm-styled living, as opposed to my lovely apartment which I will miss, but honestly, I’m just happy to be there.

Being the dork that I am, I came up with lovely excel chart, listing out all my options before finally deciding on the one I wanted. See?

Unfortunately, even with the excessive planning, I’m still going to be broke off my ass because doing anything in New York is ridiculously expensive, which means I either need to bankrupt my parents or find another job for the next two months. What to do? Also, I’ll be turning 21 during my internship, so I’ll need to party it up NYC-style that weekend. Yay!
